I am wondering if anyone on the forum knows where I can purchase copper male and female connectors mounted in the main Bakelite firewall connector? I am restoring a 1964 GMC short-bed pickup. I am upgrading the original circuitry to a newer 20 wire scheme. But, I do not want to have a bunch of butt connector hanging under the dash, and out in the engine bay, when I marry the new cable through the old connector. Thanks for any direction anyone can give me in finding these.>

You can get the Packard 56 wiring terminals and connectors at www.terminalsupplyco.com - search for Packard 56 - they have single and multiple connectors for all the connections our trucks use. I rewired almost all of my truck, and they work great.

Your local NAPA store should carry these as well.
